Food Habits Investigations, Project W25-R: Food habits information gained mainl\- through stomach analyses is an integral part of ^\â ildlife management studies now being conducted by the department. In- formation gained on nutritional value of native deer browses and other deer food habits has been valuable in helping formulate deer management plans for herds throughout the State, and in determining possible range improvements. Other species in which investigations have been made included coyotes, bobcats, pigeons, chukars, quail and waterfowl. Knowledge gained in these studies enables the department to recommend intel- ligent control measures against predators, and in the case of game birds is used in de\eloping new food plants, in planning waterfowl management areas, and in determining possible new locations for introductions or planting of various species. In addition, the food habits laboratory, as time allows, has done work for si.\ other western states. The department is reimbursed for this work on a labor cost basis. Study of Production, Migration and Wintering Areas of Waterfowl in California, Project W3 0-R: \'alue of information gained through investigations and sur\-eys of watcrfow I numbers, scope and condi- tion of breeding grounds, resting areas, and degree of kill is tremendous in setting of seasons and bag limits.
